• I’m able to view my blog. However, when I run a plugin I end up with a blog setup that has two // (slashes) between .com and blog in the URL. I’ve deleted the blog contents from my ftp program, and even deleted the database twice! (the last time giving it a new name). After uploading it each time, when I go to install, WP continues to see the db as being already installed. I get a message saying something about “clearing the tables.”

    Any idea what I can do to get rid of the old database so I can create a new one? BTW, in case you need it, the url is https://thecomputerauthority.com. Thanks for your help.

  • ‘a plugin’ – is that any at all or just one?

    As for install / tables, you can change the
    $table_prefix = ‘wp_’
    in wp-config.php to something else
    $table_prefix = ‘wp2_’
    would do.

    Podz, thanks for your reply. Had a hard drive crash, that’s the reason for this delay.

    It’s, to the best of my knowledge, just one plugin for a specific program that is causing this problem but it’s an important plugin.

    Could you give me a bit more specific reply for the install with changing the tables. That could be a great solution but I’m not clear on exactly what to do to achieve it.

    Thanks again for your help.
